not specified

Any other information on results incl. tables

NOAEL: 200mg/kg body weight/day was the dose at which no toxic effects were observed.

EDLC: 0.2mg/kg/day was calculated as estimated dose of low concern for repeated dose toxicity.

There were no death throughout the observation period of 42 days. Body weight, food consumption, hematology parameters, clinical chemistry parameters, organ weight, or pathological examination between the treated and control animals did not show any visible differences.

Transient hypolocomotion and hypopnea at the 1000mg/kg in females.
